Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire

"It's okay."

Seeing the worry in Noah's eyes, Cassius was slightly startled. Following the golden dragon's gaze, he found a strand of white hair on his temples. He smiled lightly, and as his palm gently brushed over, the blood and energy roared and the strand of white hair on his temples suddenly turned black.

This adoptive father once again returned to the appearance in Noah's memory, with surging blood and vitality, and an invincible spirit that was hard to find an opponent.

"Uncle, how did you become like this?"

When he could no longer feel the fatigue of the man in front of him, and could only perceive the surging blood and vigorous vitality, Noah knew that there was something wrong with his perception.

But it was not his problem. The main reason was that the gap in strength between them was too large, so he really couldn't see the true state of his adoptive father.

"I fought a few very tough monsters, which consumed a lot of resources, but it was not a big problem. I had a great time and killed them all."

Cassius said lightly, trying to calm the worry in the golden dragon's eyes, but when he found that he couldn't fool him easily, he changed the subject,

"Noah, I heard that you want to forge a magic weapon of your own? It just so happens that I am also preparing to forge a few handy weapons for myself. I have plenty of materials and can forge them together."

"I do plan to forge weapons."

Noah saw that his adoptive father didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask any more questions. He was not an ignorant dragon. He broke the casserole and asked the questions. What would happen if he found out? Could he solve the problem! He couldn't change anything now.

"But I designed an armor that can fit the dragon's body, which requires more materials."

"Fit the dragon's body? I heard that Angelis often showed you his collection of armor. Do you want to forge a set of armor that can fit the dragon's body?"

Cassius pondered for a moment, and then asked. After he came back, Selena told him about the big and small things that happened in the territory, including what happened to Noah, but that was told as a fun story to liven up his mood.

"Build a set of armor that fits the dragon's body?"

Noah's eyes twitched. This was an extremely extravagant idea. It's not that he hadn't thought about it, but it was unrealistic, so he didn't design it at all.

First of all, the most basic point is that the material used for the armor must have better protective performance than the object itself.

Dragon scales are already very good casting materials. There are better materials than dragon scales, and the performance is better. Not only are there enough to wrap the dragon's body, but also the future growth space must be considered.

Noah is still in the growth stage. Compared to when he just woke up from his sleep, after eleven years, his dragon body length has reached more than 23 meters, close to 24 meters.

This is actually the size that only young golden dragons can have. Compared with the size of his parents, Noah is not much smaller. This is also the reason why his parents were a little reluctant to recognize him when he met him for the first time, because Noah looked too big.

Noah is now a veritable young dragon, and his teenage period is quite long, definitely not just fifteen years for ordinary dragons.

On the premise of having a larger body than the golden dragon, which is already known for its huge body, Noah has to build a dragon-shaped armor. This cost is not even considered by Noah.

"I plan to make three weapons for myself. There should be a lot of materials left, but Selina reserved a part of it and planned to use it for the construction of the Mage City. The remaining materials may not be enough to make armor for you."

"Enough, I don't want to make a dragon-shaped armor for myself, it's too wasteful!"

Noah quickly stated,

"The magic weapon I designed for myself is a double magic ring. If you are willing to give me some materials, I can make it more complicated and turn it into a triple magic ring."

"Magic ring?"

With such a simple description, Cassius couldn't imagine what kind of weapon Noah designed for himself.

"To put it bluntly, it's a magic disc, but it can be disassembled into multiple magic rings, which can be continuously combined and changed. Even if I grow into a legendary ancient dragon in the future, I can still use it."

"Disc? How do you plan to use this kind of weapon?"

Cassius couldn't help showing a strange look on his face.

"Hang it behind your head."

Noah answered without thinking. In the dragon form, except for equipment such as gems, Noah couldn't think of any other weapons that are more suitable for the dragon body to hold and use.

In contrast, hanging several concentric magic rings behind the head not only retains majesty, but also has more style, anyway, the dragon body does not need to directly touch it.

"Behind the head? You have a good idea. I have seen similar images in the ruins, but the halo hanging behind the head does not seem to be a weapon, but a display of power."

Cassius appreciated Noah's idea and revealed a little news that made Noah look sideways,

"Uncle, where have you seen this image in the ruins?"

"It is the ruins I explored this time."

Cassius was reluctant to say more and changed the subject again,

"You can also learn from angels and put it on your head!"

"No, this looks too stupid!"

Noah resisted his adoptive father's proposal.

"Hahaha."

Cassius laughed heartily,

"You redesign your weapons. At that time, I will entrust several dwarf kings and dwarf godsmiths to cast weapons for me. At that time, you can also give me your design drawings."

"Okay."

Noah took the drawings to find his mother. As long as the long-lived golden dragon is willing to spend some time in his long life to study the subjects he is interested in, he is enough to become a master in this field. If he has talent, even if It is also easy to establish a branch with one's own origin.

"This is the prototype of the weapons you prepared for your future self. For you at this stage, it only needs to be enough, so you must have enough blank space to be able to modify and adjust."

"Um."

Noah nodded and accepted his mother's suggestion. In fact, there is enough room for improvement in terms of the armed structure. It is nothing more than large rings within small rings, stacking them up. It will test one's financial strength in the future, but this is not What he should worry about now.

"Noah, now that Cassius is back, your father and I are planning to leave."

The information was as expected, but there were still questions that were beyond Noah's expectations.

"Do you want to come with us?"

"I think it's too early for me to join the battlefield of justice against the invasion of the abyss. I'll wait until I become a legendary ancient dragon."

Noah declined politely.

"I'm not letting you enter the battlefield. You are just a young dragon. Although you are much better than dragons of the same age, there are too many geniuses who fall before they grow up on the battlefield. No matter how high the talent is, it is meaningless."

Orpheus was a little dumbfounded. She found that her heir was indeed different.

“The reason I want to take you away is because it’s no longer safe here.

Anglis and I can arrange for you to enter the large library of an ancient dragon elder. There are many metal dragons about your age there. You can communicate with them and you will make many friends. "

"Not safe? What do you mean? My adoptive father has returned."

The scales between Noah's brows wrinkled, and he deliberately emphasized his tone in the last sentence.

"It was because of seeing him that your father and I decided to take you away."

"Why?"

Noah's claws clenched unconsciously, and then he loosened them after noticing. The friction between the scales made a metallic rustling sound.

"Cassius's destiny is broken. Don't you notice it at all? Although he is hiding it, he can't hide it at all."

"What?"

Noah was shocked. He knew something was wrong with his adoptive father, but he didn't expect that the problem would be so serious.

"But I clearly feel that uncle..."

"He's still very much alive, right?"

"Yes, I did notice that something was wrong with my uncle's condition and he showed signs of fatigue, but to him, this should be nothing."

"Yes, even if Cassius's life is shattered, he can still live for another eight hundred years with the support of Titan blood."

"Eight hundred years is also a long time. It's not far behind the high elves who can live for thousands of years. The lower wood elves only have a lifespan of three to four hundred years. Sea elves, sky elves and other immortal species in the eyes of mortals don't have this kind of longevity. kind of lifespan.”

"Noah, if Cassius's destiny is not broken, according to your father's and my inference, his lifespan should be close to two thousand years old, similar to the white dragon.

But this time he went out to explore prehistoric ruins outside the material world, encountered evil spirits, and fought. Now there are only eight hundred years left.

You have to know that in these eight hundred years, in his current state, he can only live another eight hundred years if he does nothing.

But do you think, with Cassius's character, he would be like a tree man, doing nothing and motionless? Do you think it's possible? "

Noah was silent. This was a question that no one needed to think about. Of course it was impossible.

He saw fatigue and old age in his adoptive father, but he did not see fear. This warrior, even when faced with a terrifying opponent, had no intention of retreating, but was quite satisfied.

"Eight hundred years is Cassius' current theoretical maximum lifespan, but Noah, he is a true warrior, and no warrior will die of old age."

Althea expressed emotion, with admiration and admiration in her tone.

She respected such a warrior, but as a mother, she couldn't entrust her son to such a person.

At the beginning, the reason why she entrusted Noah to him was because at that time, Cassius was just an unknown earl on the border, and he was assisted by Serena.

Even if it causes a disaster, Serena can help, and the means they left behind can easily deal with it. But now, if something goes wrong with Cassius, Serena can do almost nothing except panic.

Even if they are adult golden dragons, they will be overwhelmed. Cassius's family has been developed so well and is so prosperous, which means that when the order collapses, the chaos caused will be huge.

"How could the ultimate intention of life be broken?"

Noah admitted that his mother was right.

Theoretical life is theoretical because it is difficult to achieve in practice.

For example, the theoretical life span of a mortal is one hundred and twenty years. However, in the process of running for survival, due to injuries, bleeding, illness and other factors, the theoretical life span will continue to be reduced. There are only a few human beings who can live past sixty years old. Eighty-year-olds It can be called longevity, and few live to be a hundred years old.

"Cassius only awakened part of the Titan bloodline and was able to possess the Ultimate Will of Life. This is already quite amazing. What's so strange about it being shattered now?

He is not a true Titan, and his destiny is not as stable as ours. His lifespan cannot be comparable to that of our dragon clan. "

"I see."

Noah understood.

But this is how it should be. Both elves and dragons are immortal species, but the average lifespan of high elves is only a thousand years, which is not as good as that of dragons. There are also huge disparities and differences between dragons.

The weakest white dragon only has a maximum lifespan of 2,200 years, while the golden dragon has a life span of 6,000 years. Although both can understand the ultimate meaning of fate, how can it be the same.

"In that case, I choose to stay."

"Why?"

Althea felt that she couldn't understand this heir. Just now, she resisted leaving with her, claiming that she could only go to the battlefield against the abyss until she was an ancient dragon. But now she knew that there was a greater danger lurking, but she still wanted to stay.

"My father once lamented to me that even if we search hundreds of material realms, we may not be able to find another existence like my uncle.

Therefore, even if the uncle is destined to die in battle, all the glory he created will come to an end.

Then I am willing to witness it until the last moment. I think this will be an unparalleled and huge asset for my growth. "

"Is this your decision?"

"Yes, mother."

Noah's tone was very solemn.

"Noah, my boy."

Althea carefully looked at this descendant who still maintained his original form. He was different from most of the golden dragons he had seen, but he was somewhat similar to those maverick ancient dragons.

"It seems that you are not as cowardly as I thought. You are already a young dragon, not a youngling, so I choose to respect your decision."

"Thank you for your understanding."

Noah thanked him seriously.

Because if the mother really wants to take him away by force, even if he struggles, he will be powerless. The adoptive father and mother cannot stop him. No one has any reason to stop a mother who wants to take her child away from the dangerous whirlpool.

"However, I am your mother, and it is my duty to protect your safety until you reach adulthood."

In Noah's sudden change of eyes, the dignified and gentle elf young woman in front of him took out an exquisite and small holy light wheel with great reluctance.

"This sacred object is called the Gate of Heaven, and it is one of my rarest collections. Through it, creatures under the legend can directly reach the boundless heaven.

But this is not for you, but for lending to you. You must return it to me in the future! "
